Faustino Reyes Delgado Obituary (1948 - 2026)

We announce with great sadness the passing of Faustino Reyes Delgado on February 14, 2026, a day shy of his 78th birthday. Born on February 15, 1948, in El Salto, Durango, Mexico, Faustino was a man of strength and vigor, a beacon of resilience that shone through his life's journey. He was the embodiment of the Mexican proverb, "El que persevera alcanza" - he who perseveres, achieves. Faustino carried his spirit of perseverance from his birthplace in Mexico to his adopted home in Eagle Pass, Texas. He worked tirelessly within the industrial labor sector until his retirement, demonstrating a remarkable work ethic and commitment to providing for his family. His diligence was a testament to his character, an enduring lesson for those who knew him. Faustino was a constant reminder of the beauty of hard work, tenacity, and the pursuit of the American Dream. Faustino is survived by his loving daughter Cynthia Reyes, and cherished granddaughter Cynthia Hernandez. He was preceded in death by his dedicated parents, Leopoldo and Socorro Reyes. Faustino's lasting legacy is one of strength, resilience, and unyielding love for his family – a legacy that will continue to live on through the lives he touched. In the words of the poet Rainer Maria Rilke, "The purpose of life is to be defeated by greater and greater things." Faustino's life was a testament to this belief, as he faced every challenge with courage and grace, and emerged victorious. We invite you to share your memories of Faustino and upload photos to his memorial page. In this way, we can all continue to celebrate the remarkable life he led and the profound impact he had on us all.
